Sherwood News Sheet March 6, 1912
Last Thursday marked the twentieth anniversary of the marriage of Mr and Mrs 
John Owens,and a surprise was tendered them by their many friends in and near 
Sherwood.As far as the writer knows everybody was invited and in order to 
accomodate the crowd the party was held in the Star Rink.
Such games as "Drop the handkerchief" "Jerusalem" "Ruth and Jacob" "Grunt" anf 
others were the source of amusement for some,while others were content in 
merely socializing.the time however,was enjoyed by all
A one hundred piece china set was presented to the couple by the guests as a 
token of their esteem,which was very graciously received.
At a late hour a luncheon was served,and all did justice to the repast in a 
princely manner,
Mr ans Mrs Owen have lived in Sherwood for a long time and have a host of 
friends who were glad to give them the hand in congratulation of their twenty 
years of devotio,and though Johnny says that it is altogether too long to live 
with one woman,and expressed his desire to get another,those who are 
acquainted with  him think a reconsideration will take place in his mind  and 
that the twenty years will conitnually be added to,at least this is the hope 
of their many friends and was the unanimous expression on departing for their 
homes that evening.
